tributors to humanity were maladjusted in that their lives were shorter 'than their opponents proved
filled with a great deal of friction with their environments. A tension
between them and their worlds was essential to their creati\e
productivity. A struggle is necessary for cultural as well as organic
evolution.
From the beginning man has sought to improve his lot by chang
ing tlie environment in which he lives. .A world pre-occupied with
the struggle for e-\i.stence has evolved to one that is engrossed in
science and technology. Our great advances in science, however,
are concealing as well as precijritaling the maintenance of a status
quo. Tlie prestige that science enjoys nowadays has been pointed
out by theologian David Jenkins in the fact that scientific criteria
are rerpured in all areas of life. Knowledge is c|uickly becoming onlv
that which can be known by empirical means. That to which visual
proof cannot be ascribed is looked upon as unreal or uninteresting.
Tlie privilege of theology and philosophv to ask (juestions that
cannot be answered on the basis of empirical knowledge has be
come meaningless.
Die problem has been outlined. Societv is attempting to reach
ecpiilibrium—adjustment to life. The age of the automation is eer-
tainly not far awav if liberal education is lost. It is onlv through
liberal education that one is introduced to the principles of things,
and it is enough through these principles and not mere facts that
judgments ai'e made possible. The content and method of liberal
education have been designed to develop mind and character in
making choice between truth and error, between right and wrong.
